I don't believe knowledge of G-d is a message, exactly. It's common knowledge that he has given all mankind - through their hearts, through scripture, and through nature. Whether they admit it or not, people know about Him.
News of Jesus is a message, because although we all know the promises of G-d, not all know that it has been fulfilled. The promise of messiah is common, G-d has given that to all of us. We know that we need to be saved, but not all of us know that Jesus did that, or how he did it.
Because of that, I would say that Jesus is the most important message to get to others.

The message is Jesus is God's Son. Jews were too spiritually proud. They were making a big show about going to the Temple. They were proud that they weren't poor or sick. Jesus said "blessed are the sick and the poor". Jesus rebuked the hypocrites and sinners who turned the Temple into a business.

Good question.
I realise that you dont type God but G-D, because you don't believe in saying his name.
But his name should be shouted from the rooftops!
God is the Almighty,Wonderful, all-knowing, forgiving, creator of everything.
Jesus was a Prophet and a messenger, and of course just human like you and me.
If the Christians want to pray to a human being instead of God, they will all find out their mistake later.
If Jesus and God were the same, why did Jesus pray to God??
Answer that one then!

Since Jesus' message encompasses God, AND since "no one may enter the kingdom of Heaven but through me" - I'd go with Jesus.

I think the two of them compliment each other.
From your G-d spelling I summize you might be Jewish.
You certain, then, should be aware that LIBERAL, REFORMISTS Jews have basically gone down a path similar to philosophical teachings of Jesus.
They are far mellower and have found ways to side step the old laws without changing them or breaking them.
This is not to say they are following Jesus, simply following a path quite similar to the one he was trying to show the world.

Jesus.
Even the devil believes that their is a God.
Without believing in Jesus, there is no way into God's kingdom.
Jesus said "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

I think the most important message of the pair
if I can bring the semantics up to date, is "Don't be a jerk."

God is our creator; our Father which art in heaven. If you are referring to God, yes He is the most important. Think...even Jesus prayed to God.

I would say neither and that the quest for enlightenment is the most important.
